Metal Networks

Metal Networks is the worldwide solution for buying and selling semi-finished industrial metal. The job it does: building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

Who is it for? Mostly companies with a specific process to automate. They also list Commercial and Industrial, so expect those to show up in the feature set. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Metal Networks is based in Austin, Texas. You can read more at metalnetworks.com.

Things worth asking about: portfolio relevance, who owns the code, and how they handle changes. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with Metal Networks, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
